How to use this site
You can look for things to do in several ways. Use the search box to find something specific; click on one of the ideas tags for a list of associated activities; or click on one of the place names for a list of activities in that area.
We cover Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate, as well as Birchington, Cliftonville, Manston, Monkton, St Peters and Westgate. There's also a category for daytrips out of the area, which includes anything outside Thanet - as far afield as France.
Listings are brief, often just a sentence or two with images or video plus a link to a relevant website for more details.
We're not aiming to provide detailed descriptions of each and every attraction. The intention is to help you find ideas for things to do on a rainy day - or even on a sunny one.
